History

[edit]

Bengaluru United was founded in 2018 and began playing in the BDFA Super Division for the 2018–19 season.[8] Their first match was on 25 October 2018 against Kickstart FC where they were defeated 4–2.[8] The club earned their first victory in their next match on 30 October against South United 3–0. After 13 matches, Bengaluru United finished their first season in fifth place on 23 points, 11 behind Bengaluru FC.[8] Prior to the next season, Bengaluru United signed former India international Gouramangi Singh as a first-team coach under Richard Hood.[9] The team started the Super Division 2019–20 season with a 4–1 victory over ASC.[10] This time the club finished as runners-up, behind Bengaluru FC on goal difference.[10]

In January 2020, it was announced that Bengaluru United would participate in the I-League 2nd Division,[11] India's third-tier competition.[12] The club were placed into Group C,[1] alongside ARA, FC Kerala, and the reserve teams for Indian Super League clubs Goa, Kerala Blasters, and Mumbai City.[12][13] Their first match in the national league was on 29 January 2020 against Goa at the Nagoa Ground. A goal from striker Amey Bhatkal gave Bengaluru United a 1–0 victory.[14] Despite the performance, the COVID-19 pandemic in India managed to postpone the 2nd Division season from being concluded.[15] The club were in second in the table from eight matches.[12]

In March 2021, Bengaluru United was crowned champions of the 2020–21 season of the BDFA Super Division. The club finished atop the points table with 31 points, having won 10 out of their 12 matches.[16]

"Kudos to our FC Bengaluru United boys who stayed on top of their game and remained steadfast in their commitment right through the league. Credit to all the coaches, support staff, and everyone who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure game plans were in place, training sessions were on point, and the focus on winning was unwavering. I would also like to thank the KSFA for successfully organizing the league in what are undoubtedly unique and challenging circumstances. We had 13 teams participating and the league was extremely competitive, making it a great experience for players and those who watched the games as well!"

—Gaurav Manchanda, owner of FC Bengaluru United, after the team's historic BDFA Super Division win.[17]

Ahead of the 2021–22 I-League Qualifiers, Bengaluru roped in Slovenian Luka Majcen as their third foreigner[18] after the Trinidadian duo Robert Primus and Daniel Carr.[19] They began 2021–22 season journey, with a 1–0 win against Central Reserve Police Force at the 2021 Durand Cup,[20][21][22] but the journey ended after a 4–2 defeat to Mohammedan Sporting in semi-finals.[23][24]

Bengaluru United retain the BDFA Super Division title, after winning the 2021–22 season, stacking up 13 wins and a draw.[25][26] In May 2022, the club appointed Khalid Jamil as new head coach.[27][28] In 2023, the club participated in Stafford Challenge Cup and clinched title defeating Chennaiyin FC (R) in final.[29][30][31] In 2022–23 I-League 2, showcasing good form, the club progressed to the championship round,[32][33][34] in which they failed to secure promotion to the I-League, finishing fourth.[35][36][37][38] In 2023–24 season of BDFA Super Division League, Bengaluru United sealed third-place finish.[39][40] The club later competed in 2023–24 I-League 2, achieved fourth place, earned 20 points and 6 wins in 14 matches.[41]
